The Radium Engineering 20-0827 Coolant Expansion Tank Kit is a direct OEM replacement coolant tank for the Honda Civic Type R (FK8 and FL5). CNC machined from 2-piece billet aluminium and anodised for long-term durability, this tank eliminates the failure-prone OEM plastic unit — a known weak point on performance and track-driven Type R builds.

Aluminium's superior thermal conductivity improves heat transfer compared to the factory plastic tank, while the robust metal construction is race-proven and suitable for demanding track applications. The Radium tank directly replaces the OEM unit without any permanent modifications to the vehicle — a specially designed mounting bracket secures to existing threaded holes, and Radium adapter fittings interface directly with the factory coolant lines.
